Seasonal distribution of pacemaker implantation for symptomatic bradycardia.
Permanent cardiac-pacemaker therapy is widely recognized as beneficial in the treatment of various types of symptomatic bradycardia. However, the seasonal distribution of pacemaker implantation has never been discussed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the seasonal distribution of pacemaker implantation in a large population of patients with symptomatic bradycardia. The study popula...

متن کاملComplications of Pacemaker Implantation
Approximately 180000 patients undergo pacemaker implantation in the U.S each year [1]. In addition, the extreme elderly are the most rapidly growing segment of the U.S. [2,3] and pacemakers are commonly implanted in this population. There are reports of pacemaker implant complications (generally clinical trials reporting outcomes and incident complication rates) and fewer reports of complicatio...
